we're all living under loaded gun
[Every week was bad, but this one? This one most likely has hit them all the hardest.
All well, almost all of them. Bruce certainly can't speak for everyone here... not that there's a lot of them left now.
Anyway.
Working with Speedwagon in the kitchen the two of them whip up a decent, simple fare of food just so that their stomachs won't go empty - Bruce knows that a lot of them won't have much of an appetite at all after what happened, and he can't blame them. He doesn't have much of one himself even after the food is done.
Once everything is set up in the dining hall a couple of hours later after everything that happened downstairs Bruce goes around to slip a notice to every body's room. (Everyone that is still alive, that is.)]
I know what happened was hard to take in. I feel the same as well.
If you wish to be alone I understand, but if you need company, or somebody to talk to... there is food in the dining hall made by Speedwagon and I.
I sincerely hope to see you there.

[For Sigrun and Cherryblod respectively, he'll have the note along with a plate of some food from the gathering by their door.
As mentioned earlier, there's a small fare of simple, light food and snacks for everyone to eat if they have the stomach for it. For better or for worse there's alcohol too, although Bruce certainly isn't going anywhere near it. But if anybody needs that drink after what happened, he can't blame them for the need for it, either.]

It's not something he's sure he'd ever be prepared for. ]
It's something that had to be done. They know that. [ Even if it hurts and it sucks, for them. ] ...I don't feel guilty. I don't know if that's because I'm a little messed up [ he can't say he's not ] but... I'm mostly just mad. Or I was mad, I guess.
[ He's just... tired, now. Being mad is exhausting. He can be mad again tomorrow, but it's sort of hard to be with books around and with the night settling in. ]
no subject
...and you're not messed up. I mean, at least not too much.
no subject
[ He knows he's kind of messed up! And... being here probably isn't making that better, but hey. ]
I'm just not messed up enough to kill someone or run a murder game. [ ...that's the extreme end of messed up but regardless— ] Or to get close to someone knowing I might have to do something I'd regret to them if someone told me to.
[ ...Mettaton. ]
no subject
[He wouldn't have argued with Black so often if he didn't think his thought processes and emotional... everything... was wrong sometimes. He was just willing to over look it.
Something about the last thing Black says make him make a small noise. Kinda sad, kinda noncommittal. It is what it is]
no subject
...for better or for worse. With the way his stomach is sinking, probably for the worst. It's not like he's living for his sister anymore though, not with her gone and... Black gently tugs another book over to him with his foot, bending forward just enough to pick it up before he goes back to leaning against Yosuke.
He doesn't really want to think about this. Time to think about something else instead. ]
Have you ever thought about what our titles mean? [ ...yes this is a very sudden change in conversation, just go with it while he tries to focus on reading and fails at it. ] Most of them are adjectives, but there's a couple of nouns and verbs too.
no subject
Yeah, a little. Most of them fit really obviously... some though, I really don't know. Like, I've just assumed yours has something to do with your job or something like that.
If I had to guess I'd bet mine has to do with my Persona. I use wind, and Jiraiya's upgraded form is a storm god so...
no subject
[ ...that's so mean, he's sorry, he's laughing a little before he continues. ]
I'm not really sure what mine's about [ he has his suspicions, but they're not exactly pleasant connotations ] but... I'm not sure about it being about my job. Investigators like me don't really do the whole law enforcement thing.
no subject
Rude.
Still, they're obviously not random- but if the Kingmaker picked them out I wouldn't think too hard on them. They're probably just to ID us. He didn't like it when I demanded he use names though.
no subject
[ No one would. ]
I don't think I'd want him saying my name anyway, though. Either of them. [ Black or William. ...especially not the second. ]
no subject
I'm pretty sure I'm one of his least favorite people, but I'm not too bothered by that.
[He notices that Black picked his book up again] Hey... is what you're reading... worth reading outloud?
no subject
It's a little dry, but that's just the way books were written back then. Why do you... [ ...wait, use your brain— ] Did you... want me to read to you?
no subject
no subject
It's a little weird, but I don't mind. [ It's been a while since he's been asked to... ...it's been forever, actually. ] I'll wake you up if you start nodding off anyway, all right?
no subject
no subject
... ] On the other hand, then one of us would be able to see what does that and be able to tell the others, huh? But is losing you worth that knowledge... hmm.
[ Is he giving this serious thought? ...nah, he's shaking his head. ]
You're better alive.
no subject
[He gets comfy... he knows he can't hide here all night, even if he kinda wants to, But Cherryblod needs him. Yosuke can't help but wonder if being needed is what's keeping him going now]
no subject
[ Black waits until he's comfy to begin, voice quiet but not too quiet. It really is a little boring, even with his slight pitch changes for character voices. ]
no subject
He only manages a half hour, honestly, before it's a fight to stay awake]
Remind me... to come visit you next time I have insomnia.
no subject
tickle tickle motherfucker it's time to wake up. ]
no subject
[Oh you bastard you fucker]
no subject
I did say I'd keep you from modding off, didn't I?
[ And tickling is the solution here, clearly--though it doesn't go on for long, despair not. ]
no subject
[Can't resist this scrawny boy chest oh man]
no subject
...it's a joke, right, what if it's not— Black scoots away, hiding his grin behind his book. Yeeepp. Let's just do that. ]
I'd never despoil your chastity like that, Yosuke, who do you take me for?
no subject
[I mean he IS a big ol virgin but still]
no subject
It's not like I'm wrong, though. [ ...phew. ] You scream like a teenage girl, by the way. Has anyone ever told you that?
